After spending the majority of Season 1 confined to the sleepy little town of Annville, Preacher sure is making up for lost time this season. "Viktor" was nothing if not a versatile little episode, dividing its time among Jesse Custer's ongoing search for God, Tulip facing her crime family past and Eugene coming to terms with his new lot as a resident of Hell. Not every one of these plot threads proved equally compelling, but at least the show never wastes an opportunity to be absurd.

Of the three, Eugene's storyline felt like the weak link this time around. There is a certain appeal in watching Eugene wander the halls of Hell and basically live out his own version of Orange Is the New Black.
